| AM: 30F. 11 mi total. I went to the track this morning for a 2 x 5000m @ HMP, 1 lap active recovery. Of all the HMP workouts I've done, this has proven to be the best predictor workout for me. Right before my PR about a year ago in Houston, I ran a both repeats in 19:44.
Today I ran a 19:40 (6:21, 6:17, 6:15, 47s), 19:28 (6:17, 6:18, 6:09, 44s).
It's not quite an apples-to-apples comparison, as last year I was running higher mileage, but I think a PR in Houston this year is a very reasonable/attainable goal.
PM: 4 easy, 8:20s...I actually did a double! Slowly easing them in now.

| 32F, 7:32 AP. Um...nope, can't think of any comments. Tomorrow is a workout so I'll probably have something to say then.

| 35F, fog. Down to the track to work on 1-mile pace today. I did my 8 x 400, 90 sec rest workout again today, just a bit faster than last time. Average repeat was 1:17.3. First 4 repeats were feeling a bit easy so I dropped the pace to make it hurt a bit more on the last 4.
81.3, 78.5, 78.7, 78.9, 75.8, 75.7, 75.9, 73.7.
Something like 5:10 pace average, with the range of paces pretty wide today: 5:27 for the first one, down to 4:56 for the last one. Somewhere in the middle is mile pace.

| 64F, 94%. 7:37 AP. No run yesterday. Hard to believe I ran for three months straight with no days off earlier this year; now I can't even seem to string together a full week.
Anyway, nice warm run today - it was nice not having to fool with hats, gloves, etc. or a shirt. Hopefully Matt S. doesn't see this!
